Description

Professor Sanadze's paper gives an overview of Georgian and Armenian chronicles which connect the origin of their peoples to Biblical sources, whereas Professor Alasania describes how Giorgi V, the Brilliant, restored the Georgian Kingdom after its conquest by the Mongols. Professor Asatiani traces how Medieval Georgian changed from 13 to 11 screeves and offers some cognitive interpretation based on the changes of linguistic ‘world view.’ Professors Doborjginidze and Lobzhanidze discuss their parallel (Georgian-English) electronic corpus of Old Armenian and Georgian manuscripts, including Shota Rustaveli’s vepkhist’q’aosani . The latter includes 12 previously unknown manuscripts, as well as all hitherto studied materials.
